Profile in Style: Neville Wakefield’s Many Muses
From the toy sailboats he made as a boy to the large-scale installations he’s overseen in his career, the art world curator credits his rural childhood and his own children for sharpening his keen aesthetic.

Admired by many, loved completely by one...
MUSE - Neutron Star Collision (Love Is Forever)
I have nothing left to lose You took your time to choose Then we told each other With no trace of fear that... Our love would be forever And if we die We die together And lie, I said never 'Cause our love would be forever
Anna Piaggi by Tim Walker for W Magazine
Anna Piaggi was a fashion icon who’s infamously quirky sense of style inspired thousands. She was a legend in the fashion world and we were all devastated to see her go last August.
For the 40th anniversary of W magazine, they reached out to the aging icon just one month before she died and this photo shoot was the result. Wearing her own clothing and accessories, this spread poignantly captures Anna’s spirit and unique sense of fashion. Hopefully when we are all her age one day, we will be as fearless as her.
"Teagan Vincze is a late-arriving MVP, making Teddy's wife Liz everything one would hope and expect from an hour of build-up."

Rest in Peace, Anna.
Women like Anna Piaggi harness the true power of fashion – effortlessly and endlessly imaginative, from the smallest task to the grand gesture, everything manifesting as creative expression. Piaggi lived life in colour, a protagonist of more-is-more, bigger, brighter and bolder. Making her name contributing to Italian Vogue, typing away on Sottsass' famous Olivetti Valentine, Piaggi enjoyed friendships with fashion's most referenced – Karl Lagerfeld and Manolo Blahnik in particular. The muse was a regular occurrence in the front row, in her element holding court at the runway, the purest fashion moment there is. In 2006 her philosophy was celebrated with an exhibition of her expansive wardrobe at the V&A; mixing high and low, couture, ready-to-wear, found, uniform and custom.
Piaggi died aged 81. Rest in Peace, Anna.
